    then use “they”, do you speak exclusively with yourself? your linguistic choices affect others, just like others’ linguistic choices affect you (as you were noticing and complaining about)

      then use “they”

      After 30 years of education saying otherwise it is not so easy.

      do you speak exclusively with yourself?

      I don’t speak English with others at all. I’m not in an English speaking country.

      your linguistic choices affect others

      Having a hard time grasping completely new concepts is not a choice.
